​Hello, my name is Sophie Kay and I run Ark IFS Therapy
I am an IFS and IFIO practitioner.

​If you have come this far then it probably means you are interested in starting some therapy and you may or may not know anything about IFS therapy.  Whether you have a lot of knowledge of IFS, or none at all, I will be happy to work with you as I will be your guide through the process and I will start from wherever you are.  It is enough for you to bring your Self and your parts and some idea about what it is you want to get out of the therapy, that will be enough.  

 ​ I bring my years of experience of working with people and draw on a variety of training to aim to create a safe, therapeutic space. This means to me somewhere you can, in your own time, become relaxed and comfortable, that you know is confidential, which will enable you to explore your inner world and how this relates to the outside world.

I see the ultimate aim of therapy as being for you to experience a positive change in the way you live your life, and communicate within relationships; helping you to feel better about any concerns, difficulties or behaviours, and allowing your system to feel more balanced on a day to day basis. 

There may not be an immediate effect, but each session will aim to lay a foundation towards this outcome; every person and every relationship heals in its own way and in its own time, which we can't always rush.

​Individual IFS Online Therapy and IFIO Online Couples Therapy ​

I offer Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy and Intimacy From the Inside Out© (IFIO) therapy, the relationship and couples branch of IFS.  
I do this online via Zoom for hourly sessions.  We find a mutually agreed time and try to keep the same time each week. 
I work with individuals, couples or other relationships and I  welcome people of any race, religion, gender identity, sexual orientation or with any neuro-diversity. 
I bring a non-judgemental attitude to my work, with warmth and compassion to hearing from all the parts of you that might be scared of sharing the things you find difficult or disturbing in your life. ​


​​​ ​ Set your Self free. 
You are in there, amongst what can seem like the stormy sea of your parts.
With their often opposing views it can be hard to find perspective. 
​I offer you a space to guide you to calmer waters.
